Ice Time (on Average): Two 50 minute practices and 1 one hour long game per week. Additional practice time will added as ice becomes available. Practices are held primarily at Ristuccia, between September and end of November. Most weeks provide 2 practices; however, this drops to 1 to 2 per week during the Dec.-Feb. as the high school season overlaps with our season. The majority of practices are half ice practices with other WYHA teams.
